paul secor Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 So far, everything looks as if the Board and I haven't been apart. Good to be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Wow, that was frustrating. I'll spare the details but at least things are working. We are on the new server. However, I am unable to update the actual forum software, which is the entire reason we moved servers in the first place. I have an email out to the forum software company about the next step. Stay tuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Alfredson Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 You're welcome. I was pretty stressed out the last few days because the server company was not really helping. I had to basically threaten to pull my business. I've never had any kind of issue like that with them before but they sold the company a few years ago (it was started locally by a kid in his bedroom) and since then the response time and quality of the tech service has taken a bit of a hit. I let them know I wasn't happy about how nonchalant they were while things were down and thankfully they stepped up. The good news is that the forum is running on the new server and everything is ready to upgrade the forum software. It just can't be done via the admin panel, which is how I've done it in the past. This is because the database is missing a specific table for some reason. I pay Invision, the software company that makes the forum software, a yearly fee for support, which includes installation, so hopefully they will help soon.

mikeweil Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) I thought it was about moving to the new server, but started getting worried a bit, and started missing you all. This is the only web site I go to on a regular basis, everything else is becoming really boring these days. Grand Thanks to the Grand Poobah! p.s. much faster now!

mjzee Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Looking forward to the new software. Does it have the ability to "like" a post, ala Facebook? I always thought that would be useful here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Did ECM trade Jan Garbareck to the Tiger-Cats in exchange for the negotiating rights to Johnny/Janni Football? Should we expect "It's Ok To Listen To The Grey Cup"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 LOL! I think Garbareck would cause fewer problems in the locker room than Manziel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinuta Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I've been unable to connect to the board four times today. Does anyone know why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhoots Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 Wasn't working for a while today. Now back. BTW, when on it seems "faster", or am I imagining things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't think you are. It is noticeably faster for me. Previously when I hit the submit reply button, there would be a delay of anything up to a minute. Now the message is posted almost instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
